Homeschool Tax Deductions and Credits in Connecticut

No. Connecticut has no homeschool tax credit, deduction, education savings account, or scholarship, and the family pays homeschool costs itself.

What families pay for

Connecticut's income tax has no line for homeschool expenses, and the state funds no account or grant that a homeschooling family can spend on curriculum, tutoring, or tests.

The one state-funded benefit a homeschooler can reach is in college courses. Connecticut State Community College's High School Partnership lets qualifying juniors and seniors take up to two courses each fall and spring semester without tuition or fees.

A federal 529 plan is not a homeschool fund. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) lists kindergarten through grade 12 expenses only for a student enrolled at an elementary or secondary public, private, or religious school, and it does not mention homeschooling.

Who qualifies

  1. Nothing to apply for

    There is no state homeschool benefit, so no family qualifies or is ruled out.

Applying and paying

  1. First step

    Plan your homeschool budget without a state offset, and look at the High School Partnership when your child reaches junior year.

Teaching that takes the work off you

We teach every subject starting at your child's level, grade the work as it is submitted, and keep the attendance, grades, and transcript, so homeschooling asks less of your time.
